I have not seen any uniqueness with DOs. Did anyone able to point out for me?.
once they complete their DO then finally they are in regular MD residency program.
plz do not tell me they do extra year of residency to get rid of their uniqueness.
Why are they giving mentally retarted reasons??????????.
I think none of like their program ???????

DO's have been offered allopathic residencies for some time now.

I think you are also talking about a one year internship. I believe that is in a handful of states only.

From what I hear/believe, Osteopathic residencies lack in funding and there is limited quanity of them availible.

I personally would rather have a DO. If I couldnt, Carrib seems to be a good idea.

as I said, stick to the tos that you agreed to when you signed up. further problems will lead to more warnings/banning and locking this thread. neither of you are making either profession proud

That link is from England and DO's in other countries are not the same as the DO's trained in the US...ie they do not learn medicine as we do here
